Have you ever dreamed of owning your own castle? If you have a few millions of pounds to spare then there are a selection to choose from within Scotland.

We’ve compiled a list of stunning castles all on the market across agents Savills, Knight Frank, Rettie and Strutt and Parker.

While some castles are more modern than others, all properties on the list offer some historic charm and are situated in the beautiful Scottish countryside.

One castle was even commissioned in 1467 as a wedding gift for Princess Mary Stuart, daughter of King James II of Scotland who was a direct descendant of Robert The Bruce.

Meanwhile, a 20-bedroom 19th-century castle on the list is said to be a 'living museum' with all contents of the property included in the sale.

Here are seven Scottish castles that are on the market.

Cakemuir Castle is located in the peaceful countryside of Midlothian. Dating back to the 16th century, this Category B listed castle once offered refuge to Mary Queen of Scots in 1567, as she fled Borthwick Castle disguised as a pageboy. Today, a stone plaque at the base of the tower’s original spiral staircase commemorates her stay, bearing the initials ‘MR’ and the date 11th June 1567. It is on the market with Rettie for offers over £2.9 million.
